Club career
He made his professional debut in the Serie B for Bari on 17 December 2016 in a game against Avellino.{{cite web|publisher=Weltfussball|url=http://www.weltfussball.com/spielbericht/serie-b-2016-2017-fc-bari-1908-us-avellino/|title=Game Report by Weltfussball|date=17 December 2016}}
On 10 January 2019, he joined Sambenedettese on loan.{{cite web|publisher=Pescara|url=https://www.pescaracalcio.com/giuseppe-scalera-ceduto-in-prestito-alla-s-s-sambenedettese/|title=Giuseppe Scalera ceduto in prestito alla S.S. Sambenedettese|trans-title=Giuseppe Scalera loaned to the SS Sambenedettese|date=10 January 2019|language=Italian}} However, the league refused to register the contract with Sambenedettese as it would have been his fourth club of the 2018–19 season. The lawyers argued that the Bari contract and aborted July loan to Pistoiese should not count as Bari went bankrupt soon after, making the player a free agent, but the league rejected that argument and Scalera had to return to Pescara.{{cite web|publisher=Riviera Oggi|url=https://www.rivieraoggi.it/2019/01/25/277808/samb-salta-laffare-scalera-il-ragazzo-torna-a-casa/|title=Samb, salta l’affare Scalera: il ragazzo torna a casa|trans-title=Samb, skip the Scalera affair: the boy returns home|date=25 January 2019|language=Italian}}
